Behind The Lens

Location

This photo is of Long Beach Islands N.J. Causeway Bridge Taken at Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge

Time

We live on LBI and love capturing sunrises and sunsets This was August 1st of this summer at 8:01 pm My daughter and I took a walk at the Wildlife Refuge to the edge of the bay during sunset.. it was so buggy out! I had only my sunglasses showing, my entire face had a hood all around it, so hot out also.. no skin showing except for toes.. caught this while getting bit like crazy And Thank You For liking my photo

Lighting

Sunset is the best for all things color and lighting, have to get the perfect timing for these quick colors that come through as the sunsets though

Equipment

This is on an iPhone 11 Pro Max My settings State 52 mm f2 12 MP3024x4032

Inspiration

Welcoming August with its first sunset of the month.. it’s something I try to do each month, beginning and end

Editing

Just adjusted my brilliance, highlight, shadow and brightness slightly Warmth a smidge and same with tint

In my camera bag

I’m still learning.. it’s just off my iPhone currently

Feedback

If you are shooting sunset, play with your brightness to catch it at its best colors and give yourself time Sun goes down fast, these are the after glows of color
